1/6 DX10 - Terminator 2 - T-800 Cyberdyne - Official Specs & Pics

I haven't seen it in person (I will soon), but age is reflected by more than wrinkles on the face. If you put a few lines on a 15 year old's face, his face will still look young. This Arnold looks too "fresh faced" to my eyes for the period he is supposed to represent, and I've seen enough pictures to get a pretty good impression I think. In fact, he still look younger than a Conan/Red Sonja/Commando/Predator Arnold probably would, but those were at least 4-5 years prior to T2. Plus, you can do some paintwork on the head to hide the age issue a bit better. Just my opinion, but the T1 sculpt actually looks like an older guy than this DX sculpt does IMO, despite having fewer wrinkles I guess.

I'm inclined to agree. Yes the lines are there but the damn smooth skin otherwise, the inferior paintjob and possibly the PERS contribute to him looking younger in spite of those lines.

I definitely agree on that but besides the age issue it's still a great likeness to Arnold.

Whenever I saw Arnold in the Making of T2 he always looked younger to me than he actually did on screen

Sweet!

Yeah, I've planned it from the moment we first saw specs of it

I hope I can swing getting two DX13's so I can display it with both heads. I've always been partial to the ripped off cheek and forehead makeup since I was kid and I think they did a excellent job at capturing it.

If you guys don't like your DX10 sculpts then

Gib dem to me. Nao.

Recent pose change:

It's hard to take decent pics when I can only do so at night.

I agree. If you're getting one DX13, full BD head is a must.

Stephanie Tanner in a Terminator thread. Never thought I'd see that!

I really like the semi bd head. I have a feeling I'll be switching them a lot.

If anyone in that household was really a Terminator, it was her IMO.

So just by a quick survey for all who are collecting this figure...

You see the shots with my minigun, that is the MMS jacket. I was waiting for the MMS pants which have now arrived, but was too lazy to futz them onto the figure after being posed like that already. So we are looking at MMS jacket, DX pants.

Do you think the pose with the minigun, would look as good, if it was a DX jacket? Or does the wear of the MMS add to the look....

I have to sell one, I just don't know which one!!!

the dx one in my opinion, the mms is quite perfect...
at the end I really don't care if you have posed your t2 in a dramatic/action pose and it's not movie accurate, is a beautiful pose and is still very boring to see the same pose in all the t2 figures..
is not movie accurate ? , don't care..we could use our imagination and to be glad to make a new pose for our figures...

You should grab a xtra dx jacket cheap while u can. The original looks good but the dx is very nice.

I couldn't agree less. Some people are more repetitious than P, and about as narrow minded.

Re: Hot Toys - DX10 - Terminator 2 - T-800 Cyberdyne - Official Specs & Pics

We all see things in our own way, if you don't agree - cool.

There's no need for the attitude though.

No need to take pot shots at people. We're all friends here and our disagreements can remain respectful.
